Safety system for visual flight references system

Abstract

A safety system for visual flight reference system for simulating the geography around an airplane during the landing and the take-off under zero visibility conditions. The inventive device includes a display screen, a keyboard, a hold-down bracket and a central processing unit.

I claim: 
     
       1. A safety system for visual flight references system for mounting to a dash of an airplane having a pair of controls, the safety system comprising: a central processing unit electrically connected to a plurality of instruments within an airplane and constantly reading said instruments;   a keyboard electrically connected to said central processing unit allowing a pilot to enter information into said central processing unit;   a display screen pivotally attached to said keyboard and electrically connected to said central processing unit to display to said pilot a surrounding geography without undesirable weather conditions present to interfere with said pilot's vision; and   wherein said keyboard is positionable between horizontal planes extending through pivot axes of steering yokes of said airplane.   
     
     
       2. The safety system of claim 1, including a hold-down bracket for adjustably securing said keyboard to a dash within said airplane. 
     
     
       3. The safety system of claim 2, wherein said hold-down bracket comprises: a T-rail secured to said dash traversely to a longitudinal axis of said airplane;   a pair of C-brackets secured to opposite sides of said keyboard and slidably engaging said T-rail; and   a pair of winged end screws threadably projecting through said pair of C-brackets for tightening said C-bracket to said T-rail for preventing movement of said keyboard.   
     
     
       4. A safety system for visual flight references system comprising: an airplane having a cockpit having a dash and control panel, said control panel having two sets of controls including a pair of steering yokes;   a central processing unit electrically connected to a plurality of instruments of an airplane and constantly reading said instruments;   a keyboard electrically connected to said central processing unit allowing a pilot to enter information into said central processing unit;   a display screen pivotally attached to said keyboard and electrically connected to said central processing unit to display to said pilot a surrounding geography without undesirable weather conditions present to interfere with said pilot's vision;   a hold-down bracket for adjustably securing said keyboard to said dash of said airplane, wherein said keyboard is positionable between horizontal planes extending through pivot axes of said yokes;   a T-rail secured to said dash traversely to a longitudinal axis of said airplane;   a pair of C-brackets secured to opposite sides of said keyboard and slidably engaging said T-rail such that said keyboard is positionable along said T-rail;   wherein a length of said T-rail is defined between opposite ends thereof, said length of said T-rail being less than a distance between horizontal planes extending through pivot axes of said steering yokes; and   a pair of winged end screws threadably projecting through said pair of C-brackets for tightening said C-bracket to said T-rail for preventing movement of said keyboard.
